I forgot to add the best part of this article. After the show, the lead singer of Lords of the New Church, Stiv Bators, asked Lila where I was. "Oh, Cintra dove out of the van to meet some guy she knew," Lila told him.
By the time I was leaving SF for NYC in the mid-90s, I realized that every single person that I knew had at least one Courtney Love story. Yours is both the funniest and, in a way, most salutary since most others tended to involved theft. Your desc of "Jones" as a "tough, funny, hyper-intelligent guy from Boston" made me wonder if I'd be making a cameo for an event that I don't remember until I realized the only modifier we really share is probably "from Boston." I will add that, given CL's look at the time, it sounds less like you ruined that dress than broke it in for her. Brilliant work, as always.
Lady- You had me at "peach-flavored hussy" and "kinderwhore". I haven't thought of Lords of the New Church for decades, but reading this transports me back to those times. Thanks for dredging up these precious, forgotten moments. Xo JVH
Does anyone here know if anyone in America still lives the way Ms. Wilson, Courtney Love, et al. lived in the (mid to late 80s?). If so, who are they? Where are they?
the pregnant pause after you lovingly caress the opening phrase "A true tale of sleeeeeeeaze!" is worth the kinderwhore ride alone... and it should be noted with all that riding pregnancy itself fairly loiters in torn fishnets around each shady corner of these posts.....not that theres ANYTHING wrong with that ....

"Wise." Said Stiv. "Very wise."

Thank you Chris!!
The dress died an honorable death.
It was a bizarre existence then.
Wonderful as always, some time I will tell you why there was a pubic hair in the Crisco at the coffee shop I worked at.
Intriguing! But I bet I can guess.
another rocket ship to the moon of great writing, just takes off and boom!
Thank you so much, Ms. de Novais!
Fabulous artwork....I believe it's your work?
All the work is my work, yes!
“She was just a weird chick who had a skosh more psychopathology than the rest of us. That’s what fame requires, though.”💙

Courtney Love's dress is dead. Long live Courtney Love's dress.
